The UK’s top 10 ice cream spots

Morelli’s, Broadstairs, Kent

Morelli's, Broadstairs, Kent

One of the first ice-cream parlours in Britain, Morelli's opened
on the seafront in Broadstairs, Kent in 1932. Today, the
fifth-generation family business has hit the ice-cream big-time
with concessions in Harrods' Food Hall, Selfridges and even in the
Café du Paris in Monaco, but the original seaside parlour is still
the draw for their famously creamy gelato (made on site
everyday with a time-unchanged recipe of fresh cream, milk, sugar
and eggs). With the retro decor virtually unchanged since the last
refurbished in 1959, it's a time capsule of childhood seaside
ice-creams: flavours are classics, with spectacular sundaes an
explosion of wafers, sparkles and cocktail umbrellas.
